<b>Chapter </b><b>126 </b><b>Amalie </b>


    “What do you suggest, Luna?” Jonas spits at me.


    I try not to get defensive or bristle at the elder in anger. Beren is even more pissed and wants to rip the elder to shreds. “I suggest looking at your attitude towards lesser members of the pack, or that you deem as lesser,” I growl at the elder as I try to get Beren to calm down.


    “Are we going to listen to a Luna that has been missing for years?” Dalton exims in anger. “She has no right to dictate what the pack does.”


    “She is our mate,” Cal growls dangerously at the council member.


    “I say we have the Luna ceremony now,” Willow says as she directs her own re at the those who had been opposing the twins.


    “A vote,” Jonas says quickly. “A vote and majority of the council has to side with whatever decision.”


    “Michael is not here,” Uncle Will growls.


    “Your mate is an honorary member of the elder council,” Dalton dismisses.


    My mates and Uncle Will growl in anger.


    “Very well,” Isaac says. “All in favor of notpleting the Luna ceremony right now?”


    “I,” Jonas and Dalton say at the same time. They both then turn to look at Alison, who had been speaking against the twins.


    After a few seconds, Alison stills says nothing.


    “All in favor ofpleting the ceremony now?” Jonas growls out in anger. He is still ring at


    Alison.


    “I,” Isaac and the female elder, Willow, say at the same time.


    “I,” says Zane a secondter.


    All five of the elders turn to look at Alison, who has not said anything.


    “Three for and two against,” Dalton says triumphantly.


    “You have to vote, Alison,” Jonas says. “If you vote against the ceremony, it will end in a tie.”


    The warriors look at Alison in expectation. I look at the twins and then at the elder. We are all


    waiting for an answer.


    Alison does not answer. She instead turns around and looks out the window. “Luna, do you promise to do everything in your power to protect this pack?” she asks me.


    “I do,” I answer with no hesitation.


    “Do you swear that you will give your life for this pack? Meaning that you will be there for those that need it. Will you be a mother to those that need one, a role model to the next generation, a friend to all that need one?” Alison asks as she turns around to face me.


    “I swear,” I answer again, still no hesitation.


    “What are you doing?” Jonas growls as he goes to interfere.


    Isaac and Zane stop Jonas from interfering.


    “Alphas, do you swear to protect your Luna? Do you swear to be there for her no matter what?” Willow asks as she stands next to Alison.


    “I swear,” Cal and Mark say as they wrap their arms around me.


    “You three are the heart and soul of this pack. You are the strength and the love of the pack. You are to protect this pack to the best of your ability,” Alison says to us.


    “You are to protect the pack better than the previous generations. You will shape us to be better. For we are the Moonstone Pack, wolves of the goddess, Selene,” Willow say.


    “How dare you?” Dalton growls in anger.


    “Luna,” says one of the warriors as he bows to me.


    “Luna,” say the two other warriors.


    “Luna,” Uncle Will says as he walks towards me. He ces a kiss on my forehead.


    “Luna,” Nick says from where he is standing by Miles and Nathan. He refuses to leave the two


    traitors.


    “Luna,” Sam says he walks towards me. “I pledge my services as your Gamma and protector.”


    “I ept you as my Gamma,” I say as I stare at him.


    “Luna,” Mark says as he whispers in my ear. His lips then press to the left side of my neck. He starts to kiss my neck, where he will ce his mark. As his lips caress my neck, I try not to shiver. I fight the urge to let out a moan.


    “My Luna,” Cal growls quietly in my other ear. His own my lips finding my neck. He is pressing his


    teeth lightly into my skin on the right side. This time, a slight moan escapes my lips.


    My arousal spikes as both aretched onto the sides of my neck. Both are kissing my neck and scraping their teeth along the skin.


    “I think we need to take this somewhere else,” Mark says as he starts to tug me from the room. I know he can smell my arousal.


    “You can finishter,” Jonas growls in anger and frustration.


    “No, the ceremony was started. We are going to finish it now,” Cal growls as he tightens his hold on me. He presses his lips a little harder into my neck.


    “We will meet tomorrow morning and work out a n,” Mark says as he continues to tug me out of


    the room.


    Their kisses on my neck has sent shivers through my body. My arousal has skyrocketed. I want out of


    the hall and somewhere else.
